Zippy compact cells

I bought 4 zippy compacts for my 250 a few months ago, and have been very happy with them, but recently I have been the ying to get the flying weight of my 250 down,

the stock all up weight is approx 360 grams and mine was a portly 367,

I found out at the end of last week my batteries were 75 grams and should have been 64 ish so I complained, well I had heard nothing from HK on the RMA I put in so I went on chat this morning 70mins later I have 4 new batteries coming,

And I am a very happy chappy, :D

Yes I went down the line it was not to specification,

Now the little bird is down to 320 grams with the extra 10 I should save off the batteries and 12 for the tail servo I should be down to the majic 300, and they are supposed to fly that much better when they are lighter,
